  1. at the moment theyre in a tank with 3 other angels, 2 blushers and a peru altium
  2. ha, if you +t the sr20 you can blow it up then just but a new sr20 and start again. I think (but double check) that the main issue with the +t is the compression diffrence between the sr20det and the sr20de, as the de has higher compression, so you can take the head off and put a thicker head gasket in to solve the trick
  3. ha i was lucky and picked mine up for 2500 manual, lowered and little steering wheel. but i had to sort out a few things like bonnet, bumper and dodgy up some headlight brackets and new tires.
  4. ill second that the silvias are fun, even the PFL non turbo one like mine is. which silvia club are you talking about doddle69?
  5. cant get much simpler than my suggestion! lol but honestly i think my suggestion is the way i will go with my new setups, that way i can adjust how often and what amount the water changes are done just by throwing the garden hose in the tank for bit. and then you can add the drip system easy enough later down the track
  6. Well, how bogan are you? how about a ford falcon/ holden. lots of grunt, dont worry too much about gas as its only the weekend car. and you dont need to do too much with them and with 5k you can get a decent one or a ok one and spend the rest on lowering it and giving it a matt black spray job
  7. or simpler, have the hole in the tank drain outside and pour your own buckets in
  8. one car i had for a while and did enjoy was a 2 door ka-8 honda legend with a 3.2v6
  9. then you would need to change the ballast, that would require the work of an electrician
  10. what happens when u use diffrent tubes and starters in that hood?
  11. what makes you think its not the tubes? i really doubt that its a wiring fault as its so new
  12. I would stick with having them 2 high as im finding it a pain with the top of my top tank being 2.23 meters from the floor. but i am in the process of chopping my stand down to make the top of the top tank 2m
  13. i found this the other day when looking into making my own stands http://www.sandiegotropicalfish.com/eBu ... 7_July.htm this link will work now
  14. could the dem stole the eggs from the yellow and raised them as her own? only stabing into the dark here

    End on tanks

    End on tanks

    thats a good point, but i would remove the center of the E in picture 'A' as that would only give me about 40cm gap between the tanks coming out from the wall, i think i will start the room with the normal long lengths showing and will add in the branches later. Thanks for the idea. now to just start designing and building tank stands that can easily be broken down so i can get them out of the room if need be

    End on tanks

    yes i could, i use the window for the top tanks but for the lower tanks its hard to start the siphon and have it running out the window. and is there a clear solid tube available somewhere as the one i get from plastic box is flimsy and way too easy to kink. the bathroom is down the hallway and i dont like teaving the other end unattended unless its excessivly secure, as i have cats that like to attack moving water, yes cats.

    all these tanks are drilled too so i will probally setup an automatic waterchange system with them oneday, but that will be later, when i next move house

    End on tanks

    the tanks im thinking of using are all 1000x400x400, about 15 of them, possibly more. and i will have to siphon all the tanks into a bucket, i have been concidering having a central siphon point in the room being just a half drum in the middle of the room with a pond pump to pump the waste water out the window

  24. diver21

    End on tanks

    oh and another question, how low to the ground is the bottom of your tanks?
  25. diver21

    End on tanks

    Does anyone here have their tanks in their fishroom set up so that theyre end on? and if so whats your reasoning and how do you find it to work on compared to length on? Im in the process of nutting out my fishroom and concidering having some tanks end on in the racks.
